Study path
Broadcom-style ASIC interview preparation
Work across Ethernet-style data paths, CDC, timing, DFT, firmware, UVM, post-silicon evidence, and architecture. Describe framing, backpressure, ordering, and recovery before discussing code.
Treat throughput, deskew, queueing, and debug as end-to-end contracts with measurable evidence from checkers, reports, or lane telemetry. These independent exercises do not describe Broadcom's official interview process.
